Virgin Australia recruitment
Yes it is, so probably best you don’t make any decisions for your future applications here then.
Hi,
Just a few questions about VANZ.
How likely would a CHCH base be for a new joiner?
How many nights away per typical roster?
Typical salary with allowances - or a link to the current agreement?
Thanks

Met a guy the other day that went straight into VANZ 737 off the street. He was brand new if that helps. If you don’t get CHC take AKL. Before you know it you’ll get the transfer. Best of luck.

Would be based on retirements of current captains most of which are in early mid 40s. I’d say 20 to 25 years. If you want a quick jet command vara would be your best bet. Australia isn’t the place for career progression.
I would have thought 12-15 years?
there are a bunch of guys who are in their mid to late 50’s who will give it away in their early to mid 60’s, that will drive movement.
depends a lot on what the new boss ends up doing I guess.

Wow ok, I wasn't thinking it would be that long. I am not there yet. Just starting out in Europe. Was thinking 5-8 years in Ryanair and when Mrs Airbourne wants to move back to Oz it would be an option Ryanair can give you your command within 5 years. Who in their right mind would wait 12-15 years for narrow body command?

Before the current growth cycle 10 years was about the current jet upgrade at major airlines.

Personally I would decide where I want to be in 20 years time and jump on that ladder.
When you want to come back to Aus how will your command hours at Ryan help you jump the queue?

Up coming ground Schools
With Virgin Currently recruiting, does anyone know the number of groundschools forecast, and for what type of aircraft ? I would imagine the hold file is getting pretty big.

I have a Skype interview in about 10 days for an ATR Captain position. Has anyone been through the process recently? Any feedback on the content would be much appreciated.
